All Stars top Colts in Soldier Field clash
The 1971 All-Stars held off Baltimore as John Brockington led the ground game with 27 yards on 11 carries and a first-half score. Morrall passed well for Baltimore but the defense and pressure from June, Harris, Youngblood, and Adams limited the offense. Tom Mitchell sealed the win with a late 20-yard score after a mishandled punt.
